• the reduction of acid secretion caused by the administration of the test compound is also calculated as the change in hydrogen ion concentration in mole/L from the difference in the pH of the perfusion effluent.
• the percentage reduction in acid secretion caused by the administration of the test compound may then be calculated from the two figures obtained.
• ED 50 values for inhibition of acid secretion are determined by administering one dose of the test compound to one rat and repeating this in at least four rats for each of three or more dose levels. The results obtained are then used to calculate the ED 50 value by the standard method of least squares, as used for any dose response line.
